In March 2011, Interact Club members from South Jersey (District 7640) visited the Armando Rosenberg Home and School in Santo Domingo to volunteer for several projects supporting the ongoing maintenance of the home of several hundred kids. Several Rotary Clubs from the South Jersey support the orphanage on an ongoing basis.
Check out the photos from the trip.

Lisa Sciamanna, district Interact committee member and one of the organizing members of the COPE course for high school students reported the following after a successful day in March 2010:
We had a GREAT TIME!
We had 14 to start...2 left early and were unable to participate in the high course..but I think they had fun the 2 hours they were there.
After our lunch was the highlight of the day!! Eveyone of the 12 had a ball on the zip line...40 feet up!! They all worked really hard and climbed the"Giants Ladder" where the rungs of the ladder are 5 feet apart....they balanced on the "high swings" and were exhausted by the end of the day....the weather was great! A bit cold in the morning but hoodies were great for the afternoon....
The staff at the camp were excellant...the COPE director just great and very patient with the kids...he could talk them into trying everything..even my Elle...who was adamant she wasn't doing the high swings...of course she was the only one not to finish after falling between swing 2 and 3 but she tried...thank God for the safety lines they all wear.....
Anyway, it was a fun time and I am happy to say a great success!!
